Thread: Gonna buy soon...any suggestions on what to pay for 2012 XLT CLUB CAB ECOBOOST.

My dealer gave me 1000 ford loyalty discount for driving my 96 ranger . Just had to show registration

I would avoid the Ecoboost. At first mine was great but after 30k it started to shutter on light highway acceleration. It has been in and out of shop for 2+ months and Ford customer service has been useless. After 5 repair attempts I still have the problem and Ford is now saying it is normal. Not true just a cover up. If you want an F150 stick with the V8

Agreed, turbos are cool and all, until they blow out or need replaced. V8's just have the solid power.

Well unless of course you have a Superduty with a Powerstroke that relies on a turbo lol.

Well gentlemen?!? New 5.0 fitty with either of the two....
Boss mustang intake kit. Sizable power. Of course that means alot of other upgrades. Exhaust, air , flash. But big power

Or
Ford racing makes a 2.4 whipple blower witch they offer for the mustang. They also offer the upgrade for the 150. U just have to ask for it.
Big power.
Drivin right should both get descent milage

----------

Or u could put a hellion kit on a eb and wreck shop!

----------

But bottom line. Ford is back to makin great engines again. Either motor stock will b a good buy

I'd still go with the 5.0 with all the mods, but that's just me lol.

Me too

We can make that happen haha. I wish I was a little older where I already had my career started where I could get a '13 with the 5.0. Think they'll finance a collge kid at the dealer? Lmao.

I have a 2012 xlt super crew program truck listed at 34500 new with the 5.0,locking dif,sync,tow pkg.with 6000 miles when i bought they came down to 29000 as starting point.i put 7000 down and they came down another 4000.got mine for 18000 after the smoke cleared.also go to lot the last two days of the month,there looking to move them to make thier qoutas.Good luck!
